SCO Bankruptcy "Imminent, Inevitable"

Posted by kdawson on from the quebrada dept.

mattaw writes "From analysis by Groklaw it seems that SCO may owe Novell nearly all the SCOSource licensing fees, and has been hiding the fact for 3 years. Imminent. Inevitable. Bankruptcy. Those are the words from Novell's lawyers. Perhaps the IBM/SCO case could close earlier than planned? Perhaps we can finally be rid of this specter once and for all?"

    Actually, someone could come in and purchase SCO with the intentions of keeping the lawsuit alive.
    Bill? What are you doing? He was only joking, honestly, don't do it!

    Maybe SCO should sell bonds against the anticipated damages IBM will be paying once SCO wins the lawsuit... Ha ha ha ha.

    IBM should buy SCO and dismantle them just for spite How do you dismantle a company that consists of a box at Mailboxes, etc., some attorney's on retainer, Darl, and two hookers in a motel room?

    Maybe we could hold a fund raiser and hire Hans Reiser.
